A-Wing Pilot

The only appearance made by an A-Wing Pilot as depicted here, in either the television series, comics or merchandising, was as a Kenner action figure in the Droids collection. A-Wing fighters, on the other hand, could be seen in the Droids intro as well as in several episodes. Jann Tosh was seen piloting an A-Wing, so perhaps this character is meant to be Jann, however, Jann was never seen wearing a green A-Wing Pilots uniform.Any back story on this character can only be guessed at by looking at this one picture of him. Perhaps he has crash landed or his ship has been destroyed by those huge droids in the background. Are those pieces of wreckage near him parts of his fighter? Maybe he's running to get to his A-Wing. Who knows really, but it is a great piece of art depicting a mysterious character who never did find his way into a real Droids story.
